mk1 canadian carrier jack block
hi all, I have been serching the forum for info on the carrier jack wooden block and plate, i am in the process of completing the jack holder, (metal angle iron part). I have seen a few pictures on the forum of carrier jacks and phot's in Nigels book, their appears to be different types.
Has anyone got detailed shots of the correct jack for my carrier?, does that wooden block part also fit the T16, is it the same?.  The jack angle iron holder is 1 1/2" tall and there are two rear corner triangle brackets sitting on top of the angle iron, were their cutouts in the wood to accept these, the reason i ask is because the wooden part with plate which slides in seems taller than 1 1/2"  help! kevin.

I have looked in the canadian Mk1 (ucf1) and the picture of the block does not have the corners cut off. Maybe your bracket is for the british jack/ I will endevour to get a photo of the jack and bkt. tomorrow.

hi lynn,
thanks for that. I have made a jack angle iron holder to the specifications of Bruce Parkers holder. Jordan Baker has the same holder but with the rubber strap, Brucers has the webbing strap, i have an original webbing strap so have gone for Brucers, he sent me a first rate drawing. I need a Canadian wooden holder with Canadian Jack.

Could this be a Canadian carrier jack?, Its the red coloured one. I have included a shot of a jack with wooden block in a tools photo thread on this site and an original photo of one. I guess they were not all the same, base measures 3 1/4" by 5 1/2", 9" tall when fully lowered, dated 1929.

Jacking Block Material
I have shown my original jacking block to a number of "wood" guys and the consensus is that the it is made from Hard Maple
Hope this is helpful. Harris As usual if anyone has a spare jack for sale or trade...please PM me.
